The best ideas for a new game Baldur's Gate 3

Summary

• Explore several options of characters such as opposites or embraces dark impulses for unique dialogues and interactions.

• Challenge yourself with races without weapons or All-Magic for a different combat experience.

• Try several Playthroughs as a multiplayer mode, Bard races and new builds for greater fun and variety.

Baldur's Gate 3 offers so many choices of branching, so many finals, so many NPCs and so, so many classes and subclasses to choose from when creating a character. As a result, of course, its replay value is very high. If you have already made the character of your dreams and played at the game once, however, you may not know where you want to go later.

Whether you are looking for a fight to be more demanding, for new interactions you have not found in your first Playthrough, for more information on the tradition of the game or new ideas on the types of personality to be explored, we have a series of ideas to make your next playthrough fun and distinct as your first.

Updated on May 14, 2025 by Britt Poter: With the continuous popularity of Baldur's Gate 3 and the imminent addition of patches 8, the game is still growing. Many people are reproducing the game. We added five other playthrough options for your next race to keep things interesting.

In front of Shadowheart

Moonmaiden guides me

Playing the opposite of Shadowheart opens some interesting dialogues and the interactions of the character that you probably did not get in your first Playthrough. His love for the lady of loss is opposed to your dedication to Moonmaiden while navigating in a complicated relationship.

Selune Run's cleric is particularly exceptional if you intend to romance the Dark Justiciar, giving you a dynamic of enemies-love while trying to convert each other into your beliefs. In addition to Shadowheart, you also get many new dialogues during conversations with Selunite Isobel and other NPCs.

The best buildings for a cleric of Selune:

RedEnto Bhaalspawn

I have to resist the dark impulse

As you embrace your dark need, it provides a fixed playthrough, we also advise you to try the resistance path for a satisfactory new history. While violent impulses try to control yourself, you don't have to succumb to darkness. This push and pull provides a complicated narrative with completely new dialogues.

Resisting your murderous impulses completely changes the feeling of the game and makes you a more full piece of the main plot. Bonus points if you choose to romance Astarion, since its story as Spawn that resists Cazador is a great compliment for Bhaalspawn.

The best builds for this race:

13

Embraces all illithid

Use all the powers of the parasite

If you did not take the Illithid route during the first heat, embracing all the powers of the giro is an excellent option for your second game. This means accepting every Girmo, romanting the emperor and choosing to go in full mental at the end of the game.

To add another level to this Playthrough, make your Tav a Githyanki. Giths detests Illithide and refuses everything that derives from it. Going against the wheat and challenging the expectations of your people, your character becomes more complex with greater role -playing potential.

Try the multiplayer or the single player

The opposite of what you did before

Depending on the way you played before, choose the multiplayer or the single player for a completely different experience. If you only did the cooperative mode, try playing at home to interact more with your companions and learn better each of their skills.

If you haven't tried multiplayer, play with friends online. The role -playing game and the additional comment from your companions of real life adds a new element to the game. Any Build works for this race.

11

Romance run

Faerun's flirtation

Was there a particular character that you rushed the last time? Try the opposite for your second heat. Romanticism as many companions as possible. They are all excellent options and multiple novel at once can be a playful play.

While some are polyamorosis, like Halsin, other monogamous companions become jealous if you want to share. Try to see if you can manage more partners or not. Two to three novels is generally the best solution if you want to avoid problems. Add Romaniable npcs for more fun, such as Harleep, Mizora or Drow Twins.

If you want more options for charisma and brazen dialogue, try:

Trickster's Run

The heroes are not so heroic this time

The game gives you many options to be dishonest, for the booty and to steal. Why not take advantage of all these things by embracing your inner mind, thief and all around the criminal mind? The objectives of this race are to deceive and steal the game as much as possible.

Choose the deception whenever possible, make sure you have a blocking bonus and take what you want from people without having to first indulge in their requests. Oh, and you will have to prioritize the furtivity, of course. If you have already experienced the game as a right and useful band of adventurers, you will surely find this second very different Playthrough.

Some builds that adapt to this style of play are:

Prepare to disturb more than some residents of the kingdom if you follow this path!

All or no pano without weapons

A magical and potentially terrifying turning point on combat

For these runs, committed to abandoning your weapons and using only fists or pure magic. This is a challenge for those who want more than the method of honor or, perhaps, want only a lower peak challenge despite being able to save their progress.

If you love close combat, you are a martial arts fan or maybe you want to use more improvised weapons, you should choose the combat path without weapons. If, on the other hand, you are a passionate magical user who rarely uses your weapon anyway, then you should go on and engage to use it exclusively.

For an All-Magic race, consider these builds:

The most authentic race possible

Always be yourself

Why not play as yourself? Right. Made in the game, as much as possible 1: 1. Try to make only the choices that you actually would make in the game. Never recharge and let the chips fall where they can. Don't you want to know how you would go if you were in this situation?

This is destined to be a chaotic race, so you will have to feel comfortable to make mistakes and perhaps also lose some characters. The idea behind this race is not to represent your best or worse ego, but only to follow your instinct and be yourself. Come as you are and let's see if it's enough.

7

In-Character Run origin

Learn even more on the bizarre cast of Baldur's Gate 3

If you played during the game once, you probably have a favorite character. So why not revisit the game through the eyes of that character? Test your knowledge and love for that unique cast member while maintaining as close as possible to their family personality in origin.

This is a fun way to acquire a deeper understanding of both the chosen protagonist and the wider party and the citizens of the Kingdom, all while experiencing unique dialogues and interactions. It is also very interesting to see how the characters interact with each other without the Tav barrier often dominating the action. Select the member of the cast of origin you prefer and you like to explore their perspective on the narrative that is taking place.

Party of Summons Run

You will have to master your servants to survive

Who needs others, right? You can probably beat the game without the help of a well -balanced party, as long as you can evoke your private army. In this race, he challenges you to beat the game only with your calls to help you.

This Playthrough has absolutely no benefits regarding history and gives you space to decide with which type of personality you want to get closer to the NPC. Instead, this is the challenge of combat. This is a good potential option for those of you who have started playing with high difficulty and want other unique combat challenges.
